    M45F Maxon Turret Work Begins

    Hey Mark, Dismounted the trunnions last night. Flipped the mount upside down and began clean-up. I tried hooking a battery up, to the two drive units I have, and got less than good results. I have two more or less complete drive units and they have subtle differences. One lacks the small...

    Moving my M3 halftrack in the snow

    Edelbrock, I replied to your posts on the G asking to confirm that your frame number matched the data plate. As I thought I figure your track was rebuilt from M2 to M2A1 and either the dash plate was lost or they had no M2A1 was M2 plates. White seems to have made a bunch of the M3 dataplates...

    M45F Maxon Turret Work Begins

    Mark, To remove trunnion is it just the wiring at junction blocks and the sixteen 1/2approx bolts that hold it on? Did all the trunnion balls look good and were they easy to replace? I checked my mount it is stmpd: MOUNT M45 E1 1xxxK. Kevin

    M45F Maxon Turret Work Begins

    Mark, Guess I should check SS more often. Great thread on the M45F. I have a earlier M45 (no cannoneers step) and will be restoring it this winter/spring. How did you lift off the trunnions? I am going to have a little different wiring as the M45 had no provisions for being connected to the...

    Maryland MV owners are in trouble

    Ok, So, What if you own a 51 M211 can you tag it either historic or commercial/daily? Allowing you to choose whether you want it to be purely historic or used to haul items to your home projects. Then what about the newer deuces since they cannot because of their age apply for the historic...

    Maryland MV owners are in trouble

    Hey guys, The thread is titled Maryland MV owners in trouble. Would you say the trouble has passed or can someone give a sitrep for the current situation. Last I read there was no Senate version as of 03/12. Simply passing the House bill does nothing?? right? As read it just says not a daily...

    We need a unified voice

    I believe the legislative committee dates to the Wisconsin affair. I was told then that I was to be placed on it as a general member. At the last board meeting following the election of officers the new President asked me to serve with several others on this committee. I will gladly take alot...

    What a great thread indeed! I have been recently elected to the MVPA BoD and have many that post here on the SS site to thank for that. After reading through this thread I find very little to disagree with. Perhaps I do not think of myself as an old fogie:). For the most part though I am...

    2012 Wis Motor Vehicle Registration Rights Act

    The division in Wisconsin is a problem. Paul (undysworld) and his associates have a proven record of defeating the WisDOT attempts at restricting MVs. Everyone who stuck together with his bill last year succeeded in preserving their ability to use their MV. Those who compromised got just what...
